If so\, what assu mptions are we required to make about our underlying distribution in order to conduct this inference? In this talk\, I will describe some procedures which depend heavily on the model assumptions and how different estimatio n techniques can be compared.\n\nSee you all there!\n\nAllgraduate student s are invited. As with all talks in thegraduate student seminar\, this tal k will be accessible to allgraduate students in math and stats.This semina r was made possible by funding from the 91ºÚÁÏÍø Mathematics and Statistics Department and PGSS.\n DTSTART:20181012T160000Z DTEND:20181012T170000Z LOCATION:Room 1025 (Lounge)\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\ , 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Mathematics & Statistics Graduate Student Seminar - James McVittie URL:/mathstat/channels/event/mathematics-statistics-gr aduate-student-seminar-james-mcvittie-290453 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
